Bottom-tier voice actress wants to become a big star on VTuber.

It's not surprising that Shimizu Toru knew about this, since Midori and the others often came to his house for meals.

Although no information was revealed during the live stream, everyone has their own close friends, and the news spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred. The V community is only so big, so it gradually got around.

"So it's true? Toru-kun~ Suki~"

One second she was calling for the coach, and the next she's boldly confessing her feelings. Kurumi Noa's materialistic behavior made Tachibana Hinano click her tongue and exclaim, "Eek~ Kimo!"

"No way! I just like Toru-kun as a person, it has nothing to do with whether he has a big villa or not!"

Nutto Noah uttered nonsense that even she herself didn't believe, and said to Shimizu Toru in a high-pitched, coquettish voice, "Toru~-kun~"

"Ugh—be normal, don't do this, it scares me."

The other person's voice was already cute, but the way they tried to make it sound like it was too deliberate, which gave him goosebumps.

Previously, Shimizu Toru had considered giving a room to Kurumi Noa for free; otherwise, he wouldn't have organized that training match.

However, in order to avoid being misunderstood by Yuhi Lily and Takamiya Rion as wanting to cheat on him, he originally planned to bring it up indirectly with the two of them after VSL ended.

He casually mentioned Nutnut Noah's difficulties to the two of them, then waited for them to take the initiative to extend an invitation, employing a strategy of feigned indifference.

Now, in front of the Hanaya sisters and the others, Shimizu Toru felt she could let slip a little something: "I still have quite a few empty rooms, Noah, don't worry too much."

"Huh!? Tou-kun, do you mean you want to live with me!?" Kurumi Noa's eyes widened in surprise, thinking she had misheard.

"...There's no need to be so ambiguous. I just feel sorry for you and am lending you an empty room to stay in."

At first, I thought she was just in a bad live streaming environment, but after getting to know her, I found out she was much more substantial.

First of all, she is very prone to allergies. Not only pollen, but also cat and dog hair, even indoor dust can cause her to cough incessantly.

Secondly, it's quite common for people to only drink bottled water because they can't drink tap water. Even Qing Shui Tou feels that tap water has a strange taste after boiling and it stings the tongue.

In addition, the family's financial situation is not very good, otherwise we wouldn't live in a place with aging circuits that trip the circuit breaker frequently.

All of these factors combined make Nutnut Noah prone to low self-esteem and often feel that she is a burden on her family, causing many unnecessary expenses.

If we can let her move out, it will be good for her physical and mental health. At least there will be no dust problem in the clean water house.

As for her cat allergy, as long as she doesn't actively pet Xiyang Lili's cat, there shouldn't be any major problems; at most, she might sneeze a couple of times occasionally.

Furthermore, Shimizu Tomo suspects that Nutuna's allergies are likely due to malnutrition and a weakened immune system caused by poor physical condition.

After a few months of rest and half an hour of exercise every day, we can get him tested for allergens again at the end of the year and then verify whether his idea is correct.

"No way! I want to live with Toru too!" Mimi Usaki said quickly when she saw someone sneaking off, saying she wanted to take her along.

"Me too, I want to join!" Hinano Tachibana retorted, making the atmosphere suddenly awkward.

The Hana sisters exchanged a glance and decided not to join in the fun. Besides, Hana Sumire had just moved out to live alone not long ago and didn't want to live with someone again for the time being.

"Um... Noah, the objective conditions are what they are. Even the live stream often has problems if we don't bring it out. You two don't have this problem."

One person is fine, but with three more people, Lily Yuhi and Rion Takamiya aren't stupid. Do you think there's nothing fishy going on?

If Shimizu Toru were to push his luck too far, the inner quarters would be in chaos. No matter how much he wanted to, he could only refuse the two of them for now:

"Don't be in such a hurry. If you really want to move someday, you're always welcome to come over and join us. Don't try to be stubborn this time."

"Okay, then it's settled. You can't make excuses later."

"Since Mimi has agreed, I'll wait a little longer."

Unlike the rather regrettable deaths of Usagi Mimi and Tachibana Hinano, Kurumi Noa was so happy that her eyes welled up with tears, which immediately dripped onto the ground.

"Great... I finally have my own livestreaming room! I don't have to livestream from the living room anymore, waaaaah~"

Seeing this, Hanaya Nasu silently stepped forward and hugged the other person, showing a completely different kind of elder sister strength compared to when she was live streaming.

"Yoshi yoshi~ The difficult days will eventually pass. Noah will definitely earn a lot of money in the future and buy a big house for his family."

"Yes! I definitely will!"

As the one who recruited her into VSPO, Hanae Nazuna certainly knew why Kurumi Noa had debuted.

In fact, a few years later, Nutnite did just that. She not only moved out of that cheap apartment with outdated wiring, but also paid the down payment for a house for her parents.

Of course, I've also spent a lot of money on myself, such as laser skin rejuvenation, microneedling, eyebrow shaping, and so on.

Because she's too lazy to touch up her makeup, she not only doesn't carry a makeup bag when she goes out, but she even got semi-permanent lip makeup done so she wouldn't have to wear lipstick every day.

She finds applying sunscreen too troublesome, but doesn't want to get tanned, so Walnut Noah wears long sleeves in the summer, goes makeup-free at home, and only wears light makeup when going out.

I put on a full face of makeup today, so you could say I really valued my first meeting with Qingshui Tou.

Volume 1: Chapter 119 Number of Cohabitants +1

The last day of June happened to be a Sunday.

Summer solstice has passed, and there is still a week until Lesser Heat. The daily high temperature has already reached 35 degrees Celsius.

While it can't compare to the extreme weather of over 40 degrees Celsius that I experienced before crossing Shimizu, Tokyo's summers are still quite unpleasant due to the urban heat island effect.

Even the vegetables in the garden were wilting under the scorching sun; this was only because he watered them frequently, otherwise they would have died long ago.

While Shimizu Toru was preparing food in the kitchen, Yuhi Lily and Takamiya Rion barged in and began verbally attacking him:

"Damn it! The loss was a foregone conclusion, it's all your fault! Why did you teach them to be so good?!"

"That's right, that's right! We finally made it to the finals, and every game we got crushed in twenty minutes. You've done all sorts of bad things!"

Suddenly being unfairly blamed, Shimizu Toru raised an eyebrow upon hearing this: "To put it bluntly, you guys are just too bad. You're all newbies who just started playing, so how come they won so easily?"

After seeing that the final was between Team Rainbow and Team VSPO, he knew that the final winner was a foregone conclusion.

The problems exposed by players like Xiyang Lili in the previous training matches between the two sides cannot be solved in a short period of time.

But even having n of them isn't enough. Just having Mordekaiser and Pyke from Nutcracker alone is basically enough to clear the top lane once they're released.

Hinano and Mimi Usagi each have their own signature heroes, and five n-player teams simply can't ban them all, not to mention the differences in operation and strategy.

"Hmph ╭(╯^╰)╮ Isn't it all because you won't coach us? Otherwise, the championship would definitely be ours!"

The thought that not only did Shimizu Toru lose the game, but she was also planning to prepare a big meal for the Hana sisters to celebrate made Takamiya Rion pout.

Compared to Jin Hanhan, who was hopelessly addicted to LOL, Xiyang Lili's attention was on something else: "Tou, that girl you mentioned named Noah, will she be here today too?"

"Yes, she will come, but are you really sure you want to invite her to stay at your house?"

While chopping potatoes, Shimizu Toru said in a detached tone, "Although there are many empty rooms in the house, shouldn't we take care of Midori and the others first?"

When people live in this world, they inevitably act according to their closeness or distance. Of the three people, the ones who are most familiar with each other are naturally the people in Eutpe's small group.

"Lvxian and the others are living happily with their families and have no plans to move out, otherwise they would have come long ago."

"That's right, they don't stand on ceremony with me. Every time they come to freeload, they eat and take things, like bandits invading a village."

Thinking of the sweet garlic she had just soaked not long ago, which she had only eaten once before Green Fairy and the others had devoured it all, Qing Shui Tou couldn't help but twitch her lips.

Next time there's something good, I'll have to hide some of it beforehand. I can't work for nothing, can I?

It was too hot. After only a few words with Takamiya Rion, Yuhi Lily couldn't stand the heat and went back to the air-conditioned room.

Just as Shimizu Toru finished cooking all the dishes, the doorbell rang at the perfect moment, and Tachibana Hinano and the others arrived just in time.

"Wow~ It feels so cool! I'm finally saved!"

Wearing long sleeves, Nutto Noah immediately ran to the air conditioner and pulled at her collar, showing how determined she was to avoid getting a tan.

"This is a gift we bought together. I heard that you really like Kamen Rider, so I specially bought this Rider belt."

"Thank you for your thoughtfulness. All that sweat was worth it."

He took the box containing the Zi-O belt from Hana-chan; this thing cost several thousand yen, which wasn't cheap.

Actually, Shimizu Toru prefers the knight suit to the belt. He originally planned to cosplay as the snake-skinned monster and visit BW during the day for this BML trip.

Unfortunately, apart from him, none of the others in the group spoke Chinese, and the VR booth needed him to act as a host, so he had to give up the idea.

"Please have a seat and some fruit. I'm going to take a shower. See you later."

With the arrival of summer, many early-ripening fruits can be picked, so the table not only has mulberries, but also fruits such as plums and peaches, and even an uncut watermelon.

"When I came in, I saw a lot of fruit trees, but I didn't expect there to be watermelons too! That's amazing!"

"Compared to the fruit trees, the vegetable garden in the backyard is even more impressive. There are so many vegetables that I don't even recognize."

As soon as Tachibana Hinano finished speaking, Yuki Lily, who had just come out of the bedroom, chimed in with a smile: "These are all varieties that Toru specially went to the farm owned by the East University to buy, they're super delicious."

"Ah! Nice to meet you, I am Nutnut Noah!"

Knowing that the person in front of her was most likely her future roommate, Nutto Noah quickly stood up from the sofa to greet her.

"Hello~ I'm Sunset Lily, may I call you Noah?"

"Of course! Absolutely no problem!"

Although he had heard Yuhi Lily's voice during a training match before, when he actually met her, Tachibana Hinano couldn't help but mutter to himself, "What a great boyish voice! She's the same type as Rei-kun."

"The Rei-kun you're talking about, is it Kisaragi Rei? She's a very good friend of mine. You two used to be in the same agency?"

Hearing what Yuhi Lily said, Tachibana Hinano and the others breathed a sigh of relief. So she was a friend from the same class, so they weren't exactly strangers.

When Qingshui Tou came out of the shower, she saw that they were already chatting enthusiastically, not at all like people who had only known each other for a short time.

Drying his half-damp hair, he invited everyone to sit down, saying, "Don't just chat, come and try my cooking. I've specially made a few new dishes that I've never made before."

"I can see it now, isn't this pig's trotters? There's a whole basin of them."

Pointing to the pig's trotter soup on the table, Rion Takamiya asked curiously, "How do you eat this? It doesn't look very flavorful."

"Isn't there some dipping sauce in front of you? Just pick it up and roll it in it, it goes very well with rice."

Seeing that they were hesitant to start eating, Shimizu Toru smiled slightly: "Pig's feet are very rich in collagen, which has beauty and skin-nourishing effects~"

Anything becomes different once it's associated with nourishing yin and kidneys, or beautifying the skin.

After trying it, everyone was immediately amazed by the tender, melt-in-your-mouth braised pig's trotters with dipping sauce.

"So delicious—it looks so fatty, but it's not greasy at all!"

"Mmm, and the spiciness of this dipping sauce is just right, it really goes well with rice!"

"Let's try this kiln-roasted chicken. This is my masterpiece, which took me all afternoon to make. I even built the kiln by hand with mud, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to find suitable clay."

"Mmm—so juicy! So tender!"

Volume 1: Chapter 120 B-Limited Edition, New Clothes for a Million Fans

After agreeing with Nutto Noah that they would move in tomorrow, Tachibana Hinano and the others went back together after dinner.

Although there were enough empty rooms in the house for them all to stay in, their relationship was clearly not at that stage yet.

At 8 PM, Shimizu Toru finally started her last live stream of the month—a Bilibili exclusive stream to reach one million followers with a new outfit!

Ten days ago, he had already reached one million followers on Bilibili, but the new feature had not yet been implemented.

He once thought that the "personalized styling" feature could be implemented by having programmers stay up all night and lose some hair, but the initial code alone took more than a week to write.

In addition, due to frequent bugs during internal testing, the test was not passed until a few days ago, so the live broadcast was simply scheduled for the last day.

Thanks to the promotion that started a week in advance, tens of thousands of people came to the live broadcast room as soon as it started, and the barrage of comments, gifts and SC were flying everywhere.

"Good evening, brothers~ It's your brother Toru Hanyu! Wow~ So many people here! I can't keep up with all the comments!"

After getting the money, Shimizu Toru specially got a new computer for face-filling and watching danmaku (bullet comments). With the 2.0 model and home 3D, the character's mobility increased a lot.

No matter how many updates and iterations mobile phones undergo, their performance is still what it is, and they can never catch up with PCs.

"Thank you everyone for your support, which made me the first VTuber on Bilibili to reach one million followers. So besides the new clothes, there are other surprises today!"

In order to better generate revenue—oh wait, I mean to give back to the fans—even the uncle specially arranged for the operations department to delay updating the app version until today.

Furthermore, the update made no mention of any new features to avoid leaking the information in advance.

Even so, thanks to certain insiders, the leaks about personalized outfits still caused quite a stir.

Some people see this as a new way to fleece consumers, similar to membership shopping, and angrily criticize the uncle for his ugly behavior of selling a set of virtual outfits for tens of yuan.

Meanwhile, Shimizu Tomo's fans are eagerly awaiting the launch of the new feature, acting as if they're scrambling for tickets to Jay Chou's concert.

"But before that, let me leave for a little while and change my clothes."

The mouse is used to remove the original character art from the live streaming software, and the new character art is selected and hidden by switching the layer order.
